In this work, stability control of bipedal standing is investigated. The biped is simplified as an inverted pendulum with a foot-link. The controller consists of a general regression neural network (GRNN) feedback control, which stabilizes the inverted pendulum in a region around the upright position, and a PID feedback control, which keeps the pendulum at the upright position. The GRNN control...

Aiming at the weight degeneracy phenomena in particle filter algorithm, the improved particle filtering algorithm based on neural network was presented. BP neural network and generalized regression neural network (GRNN) are adapted to improve resampling algorithm and importance probability density function. This algorithm utilizes the nonlinear mapping function of BP neural network. First of al...

It has been long recognized that trading volume provides valuable information for understanding stock price movement. As such, equivolume charting was developed to consider how stocks appear to move in a volume frame of reference as opposed to a time frame of reference. Two technical indicators, namely the volume adjusted moving average (VAMA) and the ease of movement (EMV) indicator, are devel...

Active Noise Control (ANC) works on the principle of destructive interference between the primary disturbance field heard as undesired noise and the secondary field which is generated from control actuators. In the simplest system, the disturbance field can be a simple sine wave, and the secondary field is the same sine wave but 180 degrees out of phase. This research presents an investigation ...

BACKGROUND Cases of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) are widely distributed in eastern Asia, especially in China, Russia, and Korea. It is proved to be a difficult task to eliminate HFRS completely because of the diverse animal reservoirs and effects of global warming. Reliable forecasting is useful for the prevention and control of HFRS. METHODS Two hybrid models, one composed of...

Metal matrix composites (MMCs) are among the very important engineering materials by which the combinations of various properties can be achieved. The MMCs have the great potential for use in automobile and aerospace industries for possessing high strength, stiffness and hardness. The reinforcement types used in the composites are continuous, discontinuous, short, whiskers and particles. The at...

This paper presents a hybridization of neural networks and multiobjective memetic optimization for an adaptive, robust, and perceptual data hiding method for colour images. The multiobjective optimization problem of a robust and perceptual image data hiding is introduced. In particular, trade-off factors in designing an optimal image data hiding to maximize the quality of watermarked images and...

در میان شبکۀ معابر شهری، راه‌های اضطراری امدادرسانی حین زلزله، به‌ویژه مرحلۀ پاسخ به بحران، نقش مهمی ایفا می‌کنند. حفظ عملکرد این شبکه از معابر، ساعات اولیۀ پس اهمیت بسزایی دارد. محافظت و مقاوم‌سازی اجزای آسیب‌پذیر شبکه، به‌خصوص پل‌ها، پیش وقوع تأثیر شایان توجهی کاهش خسارات آسیب‌ها اغلب اوقات تمامی آسیب‌پذیر، به‌دلیل محدودیت بودجه، عملاً ناممکن است. ایجاب می‌کند که با شناسایی دقیق گزینه‌های ابتد...
